Charter defaults to Yahoo search and not allowing VPN connection to company drives?

I am unable to connect to company drives via VPN because Internet Explorer defaults to Yahoo Search which says "cannot find" because they go to the wrong IP address; how do I stop this so i can work remotely?|||You probably either need to access whatever it is using an IP addresse in the URL, or change a setting to use your company's internal DNS when using the VPN. Although, some browers or settings might still try to do a search or assume a domain on the name if there is no dot in the hostname part of a URL, so you may need to include your company domain on the name.
